Chasing truth, beauty, goodness, and all things naturally wholistic.

Faith over fear.

Ephesians 2:8-10

 

I’ve been married to my high school sweetheart since 2003. Together, we have four amazing children, by birth and adoption. When I am not homeschooling my favorite students, I spend my days on our 7-acre property where I try my best to love my family well and experiment with hobby homesteading. My favorite things to do are cultivate my ever-expanding gardens, wrangle chickens, ferment all the things, sourdough bake with einkorn flour, and figure out new ways to use herbs and essential oils. I believe God has tasked us to be good stewards of our spaces in the world, and I guide my children to do the same.


I am a board member of The Sparrow Fund and an Empowered to Connect Facilitator. I love to dig in the dirt, cook nourishing food, capture beauty through my camera lens, watch the sunrise on the beach, and spend time with good literature on my porch while sipping on a hot cup of coffee.

My word for 2020

The last ten years have gone by in the blink of an eye, but lots happened in those 3,652 days. When I think back to all that’s changed, I realize that a decade truly is quite a lot of time! In 2010, I was a young 30-year-old wife and mama of two kiddos. My world...

Grief is a funny thing

“Well what’d you do wrong??” “I don’t know, that’s why I’m calling you!” I replied, exasperated and frustrated.  I could almost hear the smirk on his face as he questioned me. I had attempted to make my Daddy’s brownies.  The ones everyone ohh’ed and ahh’ed about at every family gathering.  The ones he had trialed...

Oura Ring | A Data-Rich Alternative to the FitBit

I first heard about the Oura Ring on a podcast from Dr. Chris Kresser.  As a newer sleep and activity tracking device just overflowing with oodles of data, I was immediately intrigued.  In my opinion, the Oura Ring exceptionally outshines any other sleep tracker that I know of, though it’s lacking some of the daytime...
